Sometimes The Memories Win

Lost love is not easy.  I lament.

I remember sunshine and warm spring days,
I remember the shine of your eyes.
The times you warmed my heart in tiny ways,
When you looked at me I realized..

I loved you, I love you, always did and always will,
Our ways aren’t the same babe, for a while they ain’t been.
Doesn’t mean I don’t wanna think about you still,
Because darlin’ it don’t matter, sometimes the memories win.

The country nights, the starry lights, your hand in mine,
You looked lovely and tender in the glow.
The lazy nights, the porch lights, your skin in moon did shine,
Gazin’ on you then I came to know…

I loved you, I love you, always did and always will,
We parted a while back there, but a part of me was left within.
Doesn’t mean I don’t wanna think about you still,
Because darlin’ it don’t matter, sometimes the memories win.
